Information technology (IT) acceptance research has yielded many competing models, each with different sets of acceptance determinants. In this paper, we (1) review user acceptance literature and discuss eight prominent models, (2) empirically compare the eight models and their extensions, (3

Therefore support in the exchange of data, information, and knowledge exchange is becoming the key issue in cur ..."

Therefore, they may play a major role in supporting information exchange processes in various areas. This book discusses the role ontologies

Our approach allows a victim to identify the network path(s) traversed by attack traffic without requiring interactive operational support from Internet Service Providers (ISPs
